Brent and Christina Yates founded RESTORE US with a burning passion to love and serve people. With a unique model of giving, Restore US sees a need and rushes to meet that need. No red tape. No paperwork. Feet on the ground. Arms wide open. Radical generosity in action. When we go out in the name of radical giving - giving of our time, of our hearts, of our resources – we too are restored.
BRENT
YATES
I’m a business owner from Columbus, Ohio, married to my beautiful partner, Christina. Together we have six children and six grandchildren. For some time now, I have known that I am on this planet to go beyond raising a family and running businesses.
God continues to bless my family in many ways. I have been given a hand up many times in life and without those helping hands, I would not be in this place to be able to start a foundation. I am passionate to inspire others along the way to join us on this mission.
CHRISTINA YATES
I am a residential realtor by trade but a philanthropist at heart and extremely passionate about issues surrounding women and children. As a board member of Women’s Care Center I enjoy working on behalf of pregnant women in need of mentorship and financial assistance. I am fortunate to have been a co-founder of Make A Noise, an organization committed to educating women about
ovarian cancer. I was a radio host for St. Gabriel Catholic radio AM820 as well as the founder of Columbus Catholic Women’s Conference hosting thousands of attendees. I am committed to sharing the
good news.
